Mantis
Mantis/ Sunflag won the Re:Manufacture Award. Prama Bhardwaj from the company said "I would like consumers to understand how their clothes are made, and to feel a connection to the people who make them – often thousands of miles away. But the industry needs to be honest about its successes and its failures.” Photograph: PR
From Somewhere
The winner of the RE:Use Award, Orsola de Castro of From Somewhere, believes that ethical fashion "is gathering speed with the momentum of an avalanche. At From Somewhere we are, humorously and eloquently I hope, finding a creative design solution to the increasing problem of waste management.” Photograph: PR
